The Murray Independent School System proudly proclaims “a tradition of excellence,” extending back over a hundred years. The school district has been recognized repeatedly for academic excellence 和 for its positive learning environment.

With only three schools, the Murray school system is a small one, a fact which contributes immeasurably to the education it is able to provide. It also benefits from its location in an education-minded community that has always been supportive of its schools.

Located in western Kentucky, Calloway County Schools provide excellent opportunities for our students to pursue a variety of academic 和 extracurricular activities designed to prepare them for the 21st Century. Beginning with a full day kindergarten program, the three elementary schools (K-5), 中学(6-8岁), 和 high school (9-12) offer high quality curriculum designed to challenge every student from the gifted/talented to special needs learner.
